Political Asylum
Deceptions: The
Culture Of Suspicion
£12.49
This book explores the legitimacy of political asylum applications in the US & UK through an examination of the varieties of evidence narratives & documentation with which they are assessed Credibility is the central issue in determining the legitimacy of political asylum seekers but the line between truth & lies is often elusive partly because desperate people often have to use deception to escape persecution The vetting process has become infused with a climate of suspicion that not only assesses the credibility of an applicant's story & differentiates between the economic migrant & the person fleeing persecution but also attempts to determine whether an applicant represents a future threat to the receiving country This innovative text approaches the problem of deception from several angles including increased demand for evidence uses of new technologies to examine applicants' narratives assessments of forged documents attempts to differentiate between victims & persecutors & ways that cultural misunderstandings can compromise the process Essential reading for researchers & students of Political Science International Studies Refugee & Migration Studies Human Rights Anthropology Sociology Law Public Policy & Narrative Studies ...
